Chapter 233 Running with the Wind

The magical blacksmith shop opened quietly. Countless shops opened and closed every day in Demon Holy City without causing any waves.

…

Ma Yun, a little Qi-refining demon from the Horse tribe, relied on his racial talent to run fast and started running errands for people in the Demon Holy City in order to survive in the Demon Holy City. Because of his hard work and trustworthiness, he became somewhat famous. .

On this day, the wine cellar in the east of the city had to send two jars of aging wine to the restaurant in the west of the city, and they had to arrive within one stick of incense. Ma Yun took the order, holding a large wine jar in one hand. With his strong legs, he walked as fast as flying, avoiding pedestrians and all obstacles nimbly. Coupled with a flowing horse mane, it attracted many little banshees to cheer and scream.

Ma Yun looked proud. Although he was just a little Qi-refining demon, no one could match him in the field of running errands. He is also thinking about starting a logistics industry when he gets bigger in the future. He has already thought of a name, and he will call it Cainiao Express!

As the saying goes, a horse's hoofs are broken by the spring breeze. Ma Yun looked at his strong horse legs with eyes that were fascinated and intoxicated. What a perfect pair of hooves...

There was a "click", and Ma Yun sprained his foot. Ma Yun was shocked, but he reacted quickly and protected the two jars of aged wine, turned around, and slammed his back to the ground.

Ma Yun grimaced in pain, but seeing that there was no problem with the two jars of aged wine in his arms, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Ma Yun looked at his pair of horse legs in disbelief. People say that people make mistakes and horses make mistakes. But he was so young and on the rise of his career. Why did he make mistakes? If this happens again in the future, how can he become the king of errands?

"Huh?" Ma Yun made a confused sound. He turned the sole of his foot towards himself. Oh, it turned out that he didn't stumble, but that the horse's shoe was broken.

Horseshoes, also called horseshoes, are nailed to the horseshoe to protect the soles of the feet. Ma Yun is engaged in the errand business, and he also pays attention to the maintenance and replacement of horseshoes. However, due to the heavy workload these days, he was busy and forgot that the horseshoes were damaged, which caused Ma Yun to fall down.

As long as he didn't stumble, there would be no problem, Ma Yun thought, got up again, and delivered the goods first.

However, there was something wrong with the horseshoe, and he was limping and unable to run at full speed. It was difficult to reach the destination within the time of burning an incense stick.

Moreover, passers-by pointed at Ma Yun, which made Ma Yi feel anxious and ashamed. If word spread about his embarrassed appearance, who would dare to run errands with him in the future?

At this moment, Ma Yi suddenly caught a glimpse of a blacksmith shop and limped in.

…

Zhang Ye has opened his shop for two days, but no one is interested. He really wants to open up the situation and popularize the magic weapon, but the system clearly stipulates that future forging gods are prohibited from soliciting customers. They must have the backbone of a master!

Zhang Ye wants to cry but has no tears. His fame is in the world of cultivation, but he is just an unknown person in the world of demons. Zhang Ye also thought about asking Murong Hongzhuang to help, but Murong Hongzhuang has been busy with big things in the demon world recently. If Zhang Ye can't do such a small thing well, then he really can't hold his head high, so he wants to save face and suffer.

Zhang Ye was taking a nap when a voice sounded: "Boss!"

Zhang Ye opened his eyes and saw a huge horse head in front of him. Zhang Ye was so frightened that he trembled: "Horse!"

The visitor was Ma Yun. He scratched his head and looked very anxious: "Boss, do you have any horseshoes for sale here?"

As he spoke, Ma Yun raised his horse's hoof to indicate its size.

Zhang Ye calmed down his mind first. He had been in the demon world for a long time, but he still wasn't used to talking to these animals. He had to calm down.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ye was overjoyed. This was a business. Although there was no technical content in making a horseshoe, no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still a piece of meat.

Zhang Ye had a straight face, because he looked more like a master this way, and said: "There are no horseshoes for sale, you can make them now. If you are in a hurry, I can help you make them in a cup of tea."

Ma Yun pondered for a moment. If he could replace the horseshoe with a new one, he could still meet the delivery time: "That's a problem for the boss, please hurry up."

Zhang Ye didn't act, but stretched out his hand. The rules of the blacksmith shop were to pay first and then get the goods.

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, then understood and asked, "How much is it?"

Zhang Ye stretched out a finger and Ma Yun took out a low-grade demon crystal: "Thank you for your hard work, boss."

Zhang Ye didn't answer and waved his fingers.

Ma Yun was startled: "Ten yuan?" The horseshoes he usually used were low-end goods worth one or two yuan of low-grade demon crystals, so there was such a big problem today. Ma Yun gritted his teeth and decided to buy a good one. Men should be tough on themselves!

Ma Yun took out ten low-grade demon crystals and said, "Boss, use better materials!"

Zhang Ye still waved his finger, but still didn't answer. Ma Yun finally couldn't bear it any longer and said with a ferocious face, "It can't be a hundred, right?"

Zhang Ye nodded: "One hundred low-grade demon crystals."

Ma Yun looked confused, thinking that I only earn ten yuan of low-grade demon crystals for a day's hard work. If a horseshoe from Male Gobi costs a hundred yuan, you will be fooled.

But Ma Yun didn't curse, which was his professionalism. He said goodbye and turned around to leave.

Zhang Ye didn't hold back, he got what he paid for, and he didn't want to make inferior products that were only worth a few demon crystals. After all, he was a ten-star blacksmith, so he couldn't lower his requirements any more. This belonged to the dignity of a blacksmith.

Zhang Ye was about to continue taking a nap, but Ma Yun limped back: "Boss, let's have one!"

Ma Yun's expression was very painful. After all, he had to run for ten days to get one hundred low-grade demon crystals. In this case, what made him change his mind and be willing to pay a hundred lower-grade demon crystals?

Because Ma Yun wanted to deliver the goods to the destination within one stick of incense, he had to change the horseshoe. At the same time, this was also to maintain his reputation as the king of errands, and he could not stand the strange looks of others.

Compared with reputation and credibility, the one hundred low-grade demon crystals were insignificant. Ma Yun also made up his mind to be ripped off once, learn a lesson, and never come to this black shop again.

Zhang Ye didn't know why the horse head changed his mind, but he took the money and went to the backstage to forge horseshoes.

After Ma Yun's pain, he became anxious again, walking around in the blacksmith shop, hoping that he could change the new horseshoe within a cup of tea, so that he could deliver the goods within the specified time.

Of course, Ma Yun also cared about the horseshoe of one hundred low-grade demon crystals. Although he felt that he had been ripped off, he still took a look.

But he was stunned when he took a look. Is that black iron?

Although there are no magic weapons in the demon world, there are rich resources. Many demons mine minerals and send them to the cultivation world to exchange with humans. Ma Yun recognized the black iron in Zhang Ye's hand because he had resold the material for a while before, but the business didn't take off, so he switched to running errands.

Speaking of which, Ma Yun was a little surprised to see Zhang Ye using black iron to make horseshoes, because black iron is a rare and high-grade material, and a small piece is worth a lot of demon crystals.

Ma Yun immediately realized that it was not right. The blacksmith shop owner forged black iron, which did not mean that all of it would be used to make horseshoes. Maybe only a fingernail would be used as an auxiliary material.

Ma Yun thought about it this way, although he felt a little disappointed, but he felt that with the addition of black iron, one hundred demon crystals was barely worth it.

However, Ma Yun was destined to be wrong. Zhang Ye not only used black iron as the main material, but even added one or two materials that were more valuable than black iron as auxiliary materials from time to time, which made Ma Yun dumbfounded.

A cup of tea passed quickly. Before Ma Yun could come to his senses, Zhang Ye slapped a pair of light golden horseshoes on the counter: "It's done."

Ma Yun was alert and reacted. He couldn't believe it and said: "Boss, if I'm not mistaken, you used black iron just now?"

Zhang Ye was a little surprised. How could this horse recognize black iron?

"Well, black iron is the main material, and thunder steel, shining stone, etc. are auxiliary materials." Zhang Ye made the first business in the demon world, and he was in a good mood, so he introduced it.

When he heard about thunder steel and shining stone, Ma Yun couldn't help but shudder. When he was a material dealer before, he had heard of these two materials but had never seen them. It is said that as long as a fingernail is small, you can buy a house in the demon saint city...

He felt that he was being ripped off for a hundred low-grade demon crystals before, but now, he felt like he had ripped off the blacksmith shop and made a fortune.

I don't know if the blacksmith shop owner is crazy, but Ma Yun was afraid that he would regret it, so he immediately took off his old horseshoes and prepared to replace them with new ones. He trembled and stepped his hoof on the new horseshoe, and an unprecedented sense of comfort came over him.

"Oh... ah... yeah..." This wonderful touch made Ma Yun hum involuntarily. The horseshoe of one hundred low-grade demon crystals was indeed not comparable to those cheap ones!

Ma Yun stood up and took two steps. Although the horseshoe was mainly made of black iron, it was not heavy. Instead, it felt light and agile. The grip was also very strong. Even if Ma Yun ran at full speed, he would not slip.

With this pair of new horseshoes, Ma Yun felt that he was worthy of being the uncrowned king of the errand world!

"Thank you, boss!" Ma Yun was grateful from the bottom of his heart, but he had to say goodbye and leave because he was in a hurry to deliver the goods.

Zhang Ye nodded. Customer satisfaction is more valuable than one hundred low-grade demon crystals.

Zhang Ye felt that it was not easy for this delivery pony, and was about to introduce the special features of this horseshoe as a magic weapon, but Ma Yun had already run away. Zhang Ye was stunned and had to say, "Good luck to you."

Ma Yun was running on the road. There was less than half a cup of tea left before the delivery deadline. He urged the magic power to be infused into his legs and began to speed up.

However, at this moment, the iron hoof under his feet emitted a light of thunder and fire. Before Ma Yun could react, he disappeared from the street with a whoosh. The air wave brought by Ma Yun blew the stalls on both sides of the street to the ground.

"Damn pony, can you run faster?" The vendors complained while tidying up their stalls.

Ma Yun himself was also scared and screamed, but he couldn't control his legs at all. When he arrived at the destination restaurant, he couldn't stop. He left two jars of wine and didn't collect the wages, and disappeared again.

The hotel owner looked at Ma Yun's back as he left in a cloud of dust, and sighed, "Xiao Ma, this kid just loves running!"

In the time it took for a cup of tea, Ma Yun ran around the Demon Saint City twice. When his demon power was exhausted, Ma Yun collapsed on the ground with foam at the mouth. After panting for a long time, he recovered and looked at the iron hoof under his feet in surprise.

He had already noticed that the iron hoof absorbed the demon power and then turned it into the power for running. Xiao Ma tried it again. By controlling the output of the demon power, he could control the speed of running. After getting familiar with the use of the iron hoof, Xiao Ma was so excited that he didn't know what to do.

"Magic blacksmith shop? It's really magical!" Xiao Ma swallowed his saliva.
